Songtext zu 'I'm Afraid Featuring Sole' von Sage Francis

Nobody likes me
I've got nothing funny to say
And they're gonna find out what I really believe in
Well how about we trade stories about relationships and worries
I'm afraid of seeing things clearer
Everything's blurry

I'm scared of the dark
With the idea of being alone
And I'm being brave in the eyes of a mirror
Whistling in harmony
Breaking bones in the grove
I know nothing
But that's better than not acknowledging

From here you're hearing my laughter
Laughter's my escape
But I really have no idea
I have no breathe to take
Inhale, while my options are still alive
Walking through the valley of life hummingly shout suffice
At this point at the ceasing endlessness
I'm still afraid she doesn't love me as much as her new man and kids
I'm afraid I left her in the blizzard to die
So I'm questioning the whos, the befores, the answers, and the whys

I'm not concerned that my awareness has been heightened
I'm really not scared, just a little bit frightened.
I'm not concerned that my awareness has been heightened
I'm really not scared, just a little bit…
I'm afraid Adeem doesn't always know his bars
I'm afraid I'm a big superstar
I'm afraid that my penis is too big
I'm afraid that I'm never gonna have kids
I'm afraid that this is the fifth bar
I'm afraid

I'm scared of nothing, reverse psychology taking over my intimidation
With living and sitting when I have a destination
Well deserved lesson learned
My fingers avoid any objects with colors
The difference might be allergic to any difference possessed by me
I can't count past three
Large amounts frighten me
Close my eyes want to be enlightened
Shattered a mirror now luck has run away 6 years 364 days of grace
Can't begin due to my fear of premature ending
Planning to be the same abstract
I wasn't raised like that
Cover your mouth and wrap your surroundings
Head is pounding from deep thoughts
Hope that I'm not the one that will get caught
Dark water is my enemy and boats make me nervous
Watch my pronunciation just to be courteous
Have nightmares about everyone else's opinion
And some way I'm intimidated by women and little children

No questions, cause I have no answers
I hold my breath waiting for god to enlighten me and give me cancer
Never the leader followers have no face obsess my image
Walking lines put me in a better place
Race to the middle I can't make a decision
Afraid that while I'm driving the key will fall out the ignition
The finish is invisible with so many more miles to travel
Only walk in the daytime cause im afraid of my own shadow

I'm scared of writing songs about what I'm afraid of
Emotionally I'm in a paradox because I hate love
And I laugh at tears
Absence stares at me and sees I'm present
I'm scared of being wrapped up in fluorescent lighting
Fighting fears about facial flaws
I never practice my vertical cause breaking nature's laws
Might be more scarier than proving wrong social construct
Reaching for insurance I put my arms up
Wave it side to side but then I was afraid
You wouldn't think I would've cared
No I'm not scared I'm terrified
